I just noticed my lockscreen weather widget is not there anymore. Enabling additional information weather in the settings changes nothing. I am rooted on the stock rom. I may have unintentionally deleted the app that runs that widget while trying to clean up the clutter installed from the factory. Can anyone tell me what the app (or apps) is called that runs the lockscreen so I can check? Or maybe provide the stock apk for it? Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks!

AccuWeather 2014. Apk and weather daemon. Apk

Thanks for the quick reply. I installed both those apps again and the weather still does not appear on the lockscreen. I have rebooted and toggled the additional information setting but still nothing. Any other ideas on how to get it back?

Just figured it out. I had go locker installed. It was disabled completely but after uninstalling it the weather came right back instantly.

Hey guys,
My dialer shortcut icon at the bottom of the screen to the left of the drawer and web browser button is no longer working. The icon has been replaced with the white and green Android icon that looks very similar to the Market icon. When I click it, it says, "Application is not installed on your phone." I can access the dialer if I put a Contacts icon on my desktop.
How can I fix this problem?
Has anyone encountered this problem? I went into stock recovery mode and I cleared the cache but the dialer icon still does not work.

Will it launch from the app tray? And are you using the stock launcher or a custom one?
I've found every time a built-in app updates I have to remove it from ADW and put it back or it doesn't work. Google Maps, Google Voice... I think those are the two I've noticed it on but pretty sure it's anything that's in the ROM. Maybe that's the issue.
Khaytsus,
Thanks for the response. You were right on the money. It was my ADW Launcher that I installed. The uninstalled and reinstalled ADW and it works perfectly now. Thank you.

erm.. You would not have to reinstall ADW to fix that, just replace the shortcut in ADW, but okay, glad it's fixed
Is there a way to remove the widget locker icon in the status bar? ?? At first I wasn't sure what that notification was then I disabled widget locker and it was gone. So is there a way? And what does the notification mean? It goes from number 2-3. Any help is appreciated!

Have you checked the dev's website? Or the comment section in the market? Or the settings for the app?
I'd try and do some reading around and see what you come up with.
Look under advanced settings of the app..its there.just not recommended

I've never had an issue with disabling it on either 2.1 or 2.2, it never seems to get killed by the OS (having it in the notification bar makes sure it never gets killed). I don't know what numbers the OP is seeing there though it should just be the little Widget Locker icon, the numbers are likely related to another notification.

There is the root option for WidgetLocker so it never gets killed, that's what I'm currently using myself.
Anyone know if this breaks the 4 lockscreen mod? Or is it just strictly an overlay?

It's an overlay. Sometimes you will see the original lockscreen pop up first before WidgetLocker, but you can download an app to fix that.

I have been searching for widgets to lock/unlock the pattern lock like in 2.1. I have tried a lot of the widgets in the market and none of them work for 2.2. Does anyone have any suggestions to use? Right now I have to keep going settings/security and redraw the pattern just to unlock it.

Are you talking about the 9 button trace pattern thing? I don't use it, but if that's what you're talking about, why don't you just disable it, and create a lockscreen gesture in whatever trace pattern you want, no sliders, assuming you're on 6.1 stable....
I'm exactly in the same case you were. Since my update from 2.1 to 2.3.3 none of all the widgets I've tried manage to do the job. And each time I'm forced to redraw it to enable or disable.
Did any of you find a solution ?
PS : I used to do it with SwitchPro widget, tried with Beautiful widget and also with UnlockPattern Toggle.

yeah thank for your quick answer.
But unfortunatly I already knew this.
I'm just looking for a way to bypass the new security rules to do it with a widget. Just switch on/off.
Actually I'm on X10 2.3.3 rooted? But the original ask was the same.
I was wondering is there any way to add other apps to quick launch on the lockscreen under the ones for camera and walkman.
I've been running around options and google store for a while now but I can't seem to find an option or app to do that.
Thanks in advance.

Lockscreen replacements like Lockerpro, widgetlocker and few others allow quick launch options for different apps.
Thanks but I was hoping to keep my current lock screen couse its perfect for me but I will try some of those apps hope I find something I can use
I have a (rooted) P7-L10 running the latest update (2.3). I am unable to enable lockscreen widgets through Settings: Security as there is no such option available. Consequently, I am unable to install any lockscreen widgets. In fact, the only lockscreen option is the Huawei Unlock with no additional lockscreen pages, and no '+' sign to add any widgets, etc.
Any help to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated as I am extremely interested in using DashClock (especially with DashNotifier).
Thank you in advance for any guidance.

I just checked and when the option should appear if the "Huawei Unlock" method is used. The option doesn't appear if you use something else (at least not on my phone).
Where does the option to enable lockscreen widgets appear for you when Huawei Unlock is selected? I have it enabled as well, and cannot find te option anywhere.

just under, in the "security" panel. I wish I could post pictures but I ****ed up by deleting the systemui.apk and I'm waiting for someone to upload his so I could fix my phone.
Thank you for your replies. I guess it is just somehow missing from my system as there is no such option in the security panel no matter what unlocking option I choose.
If you or anyone else knows how I can get the option back, it would be greatly appreciated.

Use an other theme. For exemple, I use paper rhyme and I have this option. But you can't have widget as default, you have to switch everytime on lockscreen :/
It is probably caused by Nova Launcher which I am really like and do not want to give up.
Any way, I have moved on to Plan B, and installed KK Locker, which is working out really well.
Thank you both for trying to help...

I am using Nova Launcher and Widgets in the lock screen are working. Are you using the right procedure? After enabling in the Setting > Security > thick, in home screen swipe DOWN until you see a padlock icon at the bottom THEN swipe to left or right and you can add the Widget!
That's the whole problem Sergiopi; there is no 'Enable Lockscreen WIdgets" option in my Security settings panel for me to check.
I get the exact lock sign you mentioned in my main lockscreen only after I install and use KK Locker. Otherwise, no widget option and no lock upon swipe down.
Thank you!

Thank you Nomaro; that was it. The stupid 'Balance' theme disables lockscreen widgets and forces its own "Magazine Lock' on the lockscreen. I changed the theme as you suggested, and voila! the option to enable widgets showed up.
Thank all those who tried to help.
glad you got it working!
now a little question about widgets:
can one of you tell me how to remove the main widget (the clock) or use another widget as the "main page" for the lock screen? I can't find anything working on the internet as everything I found just tells we to "click" it and delete it by swiping up like for a widget on the home screen, except it doesn't work.
help please ^^
I had/have the same problem. I figured out that I need to change theme of lockscreen, but no widgets seem to be working, anyways, only those of system apps.
